Still, her clam dip was often served to the president.

Reviewed Nectarine-Tomato Salad
Aug 13, 2013 in Food Network Community Toolbox on FoodNetwork.com
"I loved this!! Loved the salty sweetness of the tomatoes and nectarines. I was not impressed by the honey-vinegar dressing, so I lightlly tossed the arugula in a red wine vinaigrette and topped with the tomato nectarine onion mix and drizzled it with a balsamic glaze and a light olive oil drizzle. Sooo good, will absolutely make again. ""

Yesterday was just another Spring Training day. Yankees starter Michael Pineda faced off against the Red Sox in just another Spring Training start at Steinbrenner Field. The stakes were very low, as per spring tradition. The lineup the Red Sox sent wasn't exactly representative of the Sox at their full power, but it was hardly a "bee" lineup. Eh? Eh? Bee?
At any rate, Michael Pineda's outing against the Red Sox went very, very well. Pineda had his slider working as he registered five strikeouts in just under five innings pitched, reaching his 60 pitch limit without too much in the way of stress as the Sox scratched out just four hits.
It got the minds of Yankee fans racing. With a rotation of CC Sabathia, Hiroki Kuroda, Masahario Tanaka, and Ivan Nova, Pineda is one of several pitchers competing for the fifth starter job but, if he keeps pitching like this, it won't be much of competition. Michael Pineda is healthy and well so the Yanks are set, right?
Right. If only it were so simple.
There is absolutely opportunity for optimism after Pineda's strong spring outing. For starters, it wasn't his first one of the Grapefruit League. The enormous Yankee right-hander is yet to allow a run this spring, striking out 14 batters against just one walk and eight hits allowed in nine innings. His velocity continues creeping up into the mid-nineties and his arm looks very loose in doing so.
In yesterday's outing in particular, Pineda coaxed swinging strikes by the bushel from overmatched Red Sox batters. His aforementioned slider was nearly untouchable, as big leaguers like Jonny Gomes swung over top the sharp-breaking offering.
There is opportunity for a reality check with Pineda, of course. The Red Sox lineup was a little short on talent but more importantly it was short on left-handed batters. Pineda's mostly a two-pitch guy and his fastball-slider combo is absolute murder on righties. But lefties have a bit of an easier time with Pineda, yet the Red Sox lineup was noticeably light on portsiders.
Compare yesterday's spring lineup with the one Pineda is likely to face should he face the Red Sox at full power.
Yesterday's Red Sox Lineup | Typical Sox lineup this season (projected) |
It isn't even about the difference in quality, just the extra left-handed bat Pineda must navigate makes things tougher on him. Of the lefties he faced yesterday, Jackie Bradley turned in nice at bats and pounded a double to center field and Mike Carp slapped a single through a shifted infield.
So really, it was all good from Pineda. He still threw his slider to lefties, getting a bunch of silly swings over that pitch thrown to their back foot. He attempted a few change ups, a pitch he almost never throws to righties, and the results were mixed. I recall the change coming in around 84 or 85 mph, which doesn't differ greatly from his fastball that sat close to 92 mph yesterday. Hardly a pitching coach but my view of the change up remains a dim one, if that matters (note: it does not!)
There is great reason for optimism for the Yankees when they think about what they have in Pineda. They aren't asking him to carry a great load or be a number two starter, as was his role with the Mariners. More than that, two pitch guys can work in the big leagues when they're as big as a mountain and pound the zone. Pineda's fastball looks good and his slider looks as unhittable as ever. More than anything, he looks healthy and ready to contribute.
Sure, left-handed batters might give Pineda trouble if his slider isn't working and perhaps Yankee Stadium isn't the best place for a player with that profile, but as far as fifth starters go, Michael Pineda is about as good as anybody could ask for. For all their spending this winter, the Yankees still have several pressing concerns for the upcoming seasons. If they can count on a guy like Pineda for even half of what he shows right now, the Yankees will be sitting pretty.

Phillies 7
(9-10, 6-7 away)
Diamondbacks 2
(9-10, 6-7 home)
3:40 PM ET, April 25, 2012
Chase Field, Phoenix, Arizona
PHOENIX -- Giving up two runs after six shutout innings left Cole Hamels fuming Wednesday.
"When you give us some runs you want to put up some zeros right away," said Hamels, who pitched eight strong innings in the Philadelphia Phillies' 7-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. "That's what I was able to do."Hamels (3-1) gave up a leadoff double to Willie Bloomquist in the first then retired the next 18 batters before giving up two runs on three hits, a walk and an error in the seventh."In the seventh, he got into some trouble but he got out of it," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "It looked like he lost his command there for a while but he got it back."The left-hander allowed four hits overall. He struck out seven, including his final three hitters."When you're about to go out there and just plug away, have some quick at-bats, you do get into a comfortable rhythm," Hamels said. "You want to go out there and have great inning after great inning."Hamels' single capped a five-run sixth inning. The Phillies won consecutive games to salvage a 5-5 record on their now-completed road trip. Philadelphia also won its first road series of the season."We're going home 5 and 5, which is better than 4 and 6," Manuel said. "The old saying is if you go .500 on the road and win at home you'll be in the playoffs. I'm not sure I buy it, but that's what they say."The Diamondbacks have lost seven of nine. Trevor Cahill (1-2) gave up four runs and six hits in 5 1/3 innings.Placido Polanco went 3 for 3 with two walks and scored twice. Carlos Ruiz also had three hits for the Phillies."We have some really good hitters," Hamels said. "They just haven't been able to square it up."Philadelphia took a 1-0 lead in the first when Polanco singled, went to second on a passed ball and scored on a sharp single by Hunter Pence.The Phillies broke it open in the sixth. Juan Pierre singled, Polanco walked and Cahill's second wild pitch of the game scored a run. Pence hit an RBI single that finished Cahill, Ruiz had an RBI single off Craig Breslow and Hamels looped a two-run single for a 6-0 lead."Our story today was we were unable to stop that sixth inning," said Arizona manager Kirk Gibson. "Trevor got two guys on and Breslow came in and couldn't get it cut off."Consecutive one-out singles in the seventh by Aaron Hill, Justin Upton and Jason Kubel ended Hamels' shutout bid. Hamels walked Cody Ransom to reload the bases and Paul Goldschmidt hit what appeared to be an inning-ending, double-play grounder to shortstop, but second baseman Pete Orr dropped a toss and let a run score.Hamels induced another grounder off the bat of A.J. Pollock, which did lead to a double play."He's throwing 2-0 changeups and locating," Gibson said. "That's pretty tough."Game notes
Phillies 1B Ty Wigginton had a pinch-hit single in the sixth to extend his hitting streak to 11 games. ... Kubel has hit safely in nine straight, and Hill has reached base in 14 games in a row. ... Phillies RHP Michael Schwimer, recalled from Triple-A Lehigh Valley when Michael Stutes was placed on the 15-day disabled list, made his season debut in the ninth. ... The Diamondbacks failed to hit a home run at home against the Phillies for the first time in their past 18 games. ... Phillies SS Jimmy Rollins didn't start but came on as a defensive replacement in the bottom of the eighth. Rollins is in the midst of a 3-for-33 slump and is hitless in his past seven at-bats. ... The Chase Field roof was closed for just the second time in 13 home dates with hazy, overcast skies and 90-degree temperatures outside. ... After a day off Thursday, LHP Joe Saunders will take the mound for the Diamondbacks in Miami and face RHP Carlos Zambrano. Saunders is 1-1 with a 1.29 ERA, having allowed three earned runs -- four overall -- on 21 innings across his first three starts. ... The Phillies also have Thursday off and will send RHP Roy Halladay to the mound against Chicago LHP Paul Maholm at home Friday. Halladay has allowed five runs in 30 innings over four starts for Philadelphia.

"I was making this for a crowd so I used 1.5 lbs. ground beef and 1 lb. ground pork. I doubled everything else and the consistency was fine. The meatballs were difficult to roll by hand but dropping them in the pan using a cookie dough scoop worked great! Very, very delicious!!"

Student Loans 101
When it comes to paying for college, student loans are a crucial part of the financial equation for millions of Americans who might not be able to afford tuition on their own. According to the College Board, tuition and fees for public four-year colleges in the 2011-2012 academic year cost $8,244 for in-state students and $12,526 for out-of-state students on average, and private nonprofit four-year colleges cost $28,500 on average in tuition and fees this academic year. Multiply these numbers by four and you'll get an idea of just how much damage earning that diploma can do to your bank account.
Understanding the ins and outs of student loans isn't always easy, though, especially because of all the jargon associated with them. And if you're confused by these terms, you're not alone: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau recently issued a press release reporting the feedback it received on its "Financial Aid Shopping Sheet" prototype, a financial aid disclosure form intended to make the costs and risks of student loans clear before students have enrolled. The CFPB found that an "overwhelming number" of people requested a section to review key terms – which indicates that the public is in need of more clarity when it comes to student loan terminology.
With that in mind, MainStreet spoke to financial experts to help define 10 student loan terms we think every borrower should know in language the average person can understand. We also tell you where you can expect to see these terms come up along the student loan process. Read on for the full list.

Well, at least we now know he's singing live, as evidenced by his inability to sing.
Usher had canceled his first Berlin tour stop 45 minutes after opener Tiny Tempah had already performed his opening set. We assume he thought he could make it through the replacement date after a good night of rest, but he could only make it through a handful of songs without shutting the place down.
The R&B singer released a statement via his Twitter, telling fans, "I am truly sorry to all my fans in Berlin who were inconvenienced by tonight's postponement of the show. I was ill and felt that I would not have been able to give the show that you all properly deserve."
The show is rescheduled for January 13 at the 02 World in Berlin. We'll see if third time's the charm for both him and his fans. Feel better, Ush!

"Very delicious and so easy to make with so little ingredients! Definitely the perfect sweet treat when you don't feel like spending hours in the kitchen to satisfy a sweet tooth.

Extremists attack mink farm in Burley Idaho: FCUSA Press Release
Fur Commission USA
Extremists attack mink farm in Burley Idaho.
July 30, 2013
In the early morning hours of Sunday July 28, animal rights terrorists broke into a Burley Idaho mink ranch, destroyed fencing, breeding records and over-turned thousands of mink pens. Close to 3,800 mink were released from their cages, though only a small fraction ever left the mink yard. Over 60 friends and neighbors helped collect the scared and traumatized animals throughout the following day.
"We are so grateful to our neighbors that have come to help us in our time of need." said ranch owner Cindy Moyle. "The people who did this have no idea how stressful it is for the animals. The mink are domesticated and have never had to find food or water for themselves. Those that don't return soon will suffer and die painfully." The Moyle family spent much of Tuesday picking up mink off the road, as they are attracted by traffic. The animals equate the sound of motorized vehicles with the feed cart.
Cassia County Sheriff's Dept. is investigating, as well as the FBI. Crimes committed against mink farming fall under the federal Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act, and can result in a significant prison sentence for those convicted.
An anonymous internet post has claimed responsibility for the attack. "Historically, these crimes are committed by a small group of individuals that travel around, state-to-state, terrorizing farmers" stated Michael Whelan, Executive Director of Fur Commission USA, the trade organization representing the U.S. mink farmers. "These aren't peaceful protesters, these are criminal thugs that blindly follow an anti-ag agenda. They're felons that are ruining lives. Nothing more." Fur Commission USA is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
Though the anonymous claim does not identify any organization, the FBI considers the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) the number one domestic terror threat in the U.S.
Idaho is the 3rd largest mink producing state in the U.S. The farms create over $40 million in revenue for the state each year, and support thousands of jobs.

New York Market Time Kicks Off
NEW YORK MARKET TIME GETS UNDER WAY THIS WEEK, although some retailers follow their own timetables and have already been in to view the new collections.
Vendors describe the traffic so far as what has become normal for this time of the year, but only a faint echo of what took place years ago when New York was regarded as the fur capital of the world. Now, with several international fairs having developed as one-stop shopping centers where retailers fill most of their basic needs, New York has become a final destination for the fashion pieces to add more spice to their offerings.
Indications are that the traffic will pick up significantly this week at least partly in connection with two events scheduled by Fur New York. One is a seminar for retailers, June 13 at Hotel 30/30. FNY's annual party and Person of the Year dinner will be held June 14.

IFTF: Global Retail Sales Increase by $600 Million
From The Sandy Parker Report of May 13, 2013
World retail sales of fur products edged up to $15.6 billion in 2011/12, an increase of almost $600 million over the previous year, according to the International Fur Trade Federation. The new total represents a 44% increase over the past decade, the IFTF calculates, and has been driven to a great degree by increasing demand for fur products in Asian markets, including China, Japan and Korea. Fur sales in those markets amounted to $5.6 billion in the latest period, a gain of about 5% over the previous year and more than triple what they were 10 years ago.
Asia now leads the rest of the world in terms of fur consumption, accounting for just over 35% of the total, the organization points out, having passed Europe. According to its latest calculations, European fur sales reached $4.4 billion, or 28% of the global total. Eurasian sales (including Russia, Turkey, Ukraine and Kazakhstan) were $4.4 billion, or 27.5%, and the Americas (North and South) were $1.2 billion, just over 7% of the total. The IFTF consists of 42 national member associations and organizations in 35 countries and has been reporting global retail sales for many years, but this is the first time it has produced a breakdown by country or region. It also points out that, with fur skins trading at record prices at the auctions, this has also contributed to the increase. As has the fact that more than 400 fashion designers are now showing furs in their London, Paris, New York and Milan presentations. In addition, new technology and manufacturing techniques have broadened the use of many furs not only for fall/winter, but even spring/summer.
Mark Oaten, CEO of the IFTF, points out that the latest statistics merely represent retail sales. "Our new working relationship with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) means that later in the year we will be able to release a value for the entire global industry, covering every part of the supply chain from manufacture, dressing and dyeing to design and more".
"It is increasingly difficult," concludes Oaten, "for the international business community to ignore an industry that contributes on such a significant scale to the global economy. Despite a sluggish economic backdrop, we are confident that fur sales will continue to buck the trend and I predict further growth in future years."
Making Electricity from Mink Manure
The Municipality of the District of Digby (Nova Scotia, Canada) is one step closer to making electricity and money from mink manure. The Department of Energy has approved a renewable energy project in Weaver Settlement for the community feed-in tariff (COMFIT) – meaning the municipality can sell the electricity they generate to Nova Scotia Power at a special, higher than normal, price. The technology is well-established using cow and hog manure and even sileage but this will be the first anaerobic digestor using mink manure anywhere in the world. Read more here….
Season's First North American Sale Brings More Record Prices.
Mink prices soared to historic heights at the season's first North American sale in Toronto, in what was described as the biggest mink offering in North American history. Chinese and Russian buyers spearheaded the demand, in order to satisfy the still-growing appetites of people back home. The February sale at North American Fur Auctions attracted over 700 buyers, its biggest attendance ever, and at times it was standing room only.
The bidding was spirited, sending prices to historic highs for North American mink, fully 20% over the same sale last year, according to the company. Buyers agreed, calling prices firm to the record levels achieved elsewhere for comparable goods. Hong Kong/China, as expected, was the dominant buyer throughout, with strong support from Greece, Russia and Korea. Chinese buyers, whose ranks have been growing at each successive auction on both sides of the Atlantic for several years – in line with the expansion of their domestic market at the manufacturing and retail levels – quickly dominated the action.
This also was the biggest-ever offering of mink at a North American sale, some 3.9 million pelts, including international goods. The entire collection was snapped up at strong prices, attesting to the demand at the retail level, particularly in China.
Sandy Parker Report: Chinese Buyers Dominate at Year's First Auction
Sandy Parker Reports
Volume 36, Issue 46
February 11, 2013
As expected, mink prices resumed their upward movement as the new auction season got into full swing at Kopenhagen Fur last week amid signs the trend is likely to continue at the sales elsewhere in the weeks ahead. Hong Kong/China, to no one's surprise and with even greater representation than before, took the lead from the outset and set the pace virtually throughout the auction. Although this actually was Kopenhagen's second sale of the season – the small December event intended mainly to meet the trade's immediate needs – the buying now reflects planning for the year ahead.
The Chinese fur trade, aided by one of the coldest winters in that country's history, has been enjoying a banner season and has been steadily expanding at all levels. There are no official figures but, according to sources close to that market, the past year has witnessed sizable increases in the ranks of manufacturers not only in the established production centers, but elsewhere in the country as well. Similarly, new retail operations have been blossoming out around the country to cater to the increased demand from a newly-monied population that now can afford what previous generations could not. And, while the bulk of China's domestic fur business is still in hats, trimmings and inexpensive garments, there also is growing demand for jackets and coats of mink and other fine furs. That mink prices are still rising despite the recent increase in world production – and the emergence of China as the largest producer – can be attributed to its huge increase in consumption.
The steady expansion of its industry has been accompanied by an increased Chinese presence at the major auctions. Not only do they now occupy most of the seats in the salesroom, but there are said to be an increasing number of manufacturers and retailers doing their own bidding, rather than through dealers or brokers as they formerly did. Kopenhagen's training programs apparently are bringing results.
As to how big China's fur industry has already grown, there are no official government figures. According to data gathered by the China Leather Association, fur sales rose 22.4% from the previous year and are expected to reach 16.42 billion yuan ($2.64 billion U.S. at the current rate of exchange) in the next two years.
This week's sale attracted almost 800 buyers, Kopenhagen reported, with Hong Kong/China accounting for about 500 and dominating throughout. The 5.7 million mink were all sold at prices as much as 14% over December levels in Danish kroner.
Animal Rights Groups Take Notice as Youth Warm Up to Fur
MONTREAL — It can be difficult to walk a city block in Montreal these days without coming across a coyote, lynx, fox or raccoon.
Fur seems to be everywhere, as vintage coats get rejigged into stylish hats or even ear muffs and brand name jackets feature it on their collars.
The renewed popularity may be welcome among manufacturers and fashion lovers, but it has some animal rights activists concerned.
"This is something we've noticed that we take very seriously," Thurston Sayara of the Humane Society said of the craze for fur accessories.
People aren't always aware their parkas or hats are outfitted with real fur, she said, or may believe it comes from the scraps of animals already used to make coats.
"They don't realize that most animals are killed for it," she said.
Still, what was once most common among the affluent and the elderly has caught on with a young, hip crowd. This winter, collars, hats and other fur accessories flew from the shelves as soon as the first snow flakes fell.
Stephanie Bingham, co-owner of the Montreal shop La Founderie, said the fur revival began five or six years ago and has really taken off in the last two.
The rise in popularity is hard to explain, Bingham said, but the fact that many people are using vintage fur eliminates the ethical problem.
"I think it's easier to incorporate a little bit of fur in your wardrobe rather than wearing a full coat," Bingham said.
Sayara said the Humane Society considers the fur industry "particularly cruel" because it sells a luxury product that is no longer necessary, since artificial replacements are just as hot on the market.
For its part, the fur industry argues it plays a role in controlling the population of some species.
Alan Herscovici of the Fur Council of Canada said the coyote, whose fur is often used to decorate caps, is superfluous in some parts of the country, to the point that it causes problems for livestock producers.
"There are some who do not like the idea that we're going to trap or hunt," he said, but "we need to make a certain amount of trappings to keep a balance with wildlife populations and nature in the ecosystem. "
The vast majority of fur comes from fur farms, however.
Teresa Eloy, also with the Fur Council, argues that animals at fur farms have to be treated well in order for their fur to be beautiful and lush.
These arguments don't convince Danielle Katz of the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. She argues animals suffer and emphasizes that many celebrities refuse to wear fur for ethical reasons, hoping that their young fans will follow suit.
Many clients, however, are more concerned with appearance than where the fur comes from, Bingham said.
Noemie Archambault, a 20-year-old wearing a coat with a fur-lined hood at a bus stop, said she didn't even check whether it was real before buying it. Turns out it's made with raccoon fur.
"It definitely bothers me, but at the same time it's good quality and it will stay nice for a long time and it's warm," she said.
Nova Scotia: New Regulations Will Protect the Environment While Supporting Jobs and Exports
New regulations will protect the environment while supporting jobs and exports
New regulations introduced by the provincial government will ensure that lakes and watercourses are protected while allowing Nova Scotia mink farmers to respond to growing international demand for their products.
"Nova Scotia produces some of the finest mink in the world, and with the revival of fur in fashion and the emergence of important new markets in Russia and Asia, we expect continued strong growth over the coming years," said Dan Mullen, president of the Nova Scotia Fur Breeders Association.
"These regulations will ensure that we will can continuing growing while protecting nature, which is as important to farmers as it is to anyone living in this beautiful province," said Mullen
The new regulations announced by Agriculture Minister John MacDonell (January 11) will apply to farms with more than 100 mink or fox in their breeding herds. They establish procedures for the safe storage, treatment and disposal of manure, waste feed and carcasses. Some of the requirements include the development of a management plan by a professional engineer, surface water and soil monitoring, minimum distances for locating facilities away from property lines and water courses, and concrete pads for storing compost and solid manure.
"The new regulations will certainly involve additional responsibilities and costs for Nova Scotia mink farmers, but we fully support the need to ensure that we can continue growing without harming the environment," said Mullen.
Fur farming is one of the fastest growing, rural-based industries in Nova Scotia, generating $140 million annually for the provincial economy and supporting more than 1,000 jobs. About one-half of the farmed mink produced in Canada are now raised in Nova Scotia.

European Court bans PETA "Holocaust on Your Plate" campaign
The European Court of Human Rights has banned the "Holocaust on Your Plate" campaign by the animal rights group PETA. The campaign compares Holocaust victims to animals slaughtered for the food industry. The campaign was launched in Germany over a decade ago, and immediately antagonized the Jewish community, which initiated legal actions against it.
Once taboo, fur sales hit new highs on Chinese demand
"The growth in inland China is really what's driving growth at the moment and we think for the next 10 years or so that will continue to rise," IFTF Chief Executive Mark Oaten said. "There are 90 cities in China that buy as much fur as New York."

NY State Grants $9M For Upstate Broadband Projects
Re:The Onion (36 comments)
How about no subsidy... and to go along with it, no mandates from NYC? Better yet, how about NYC let NY state form a separate state since everyone north and west of the Hudson Valley have almost nothing in common with the people in the greater Albany/NYC/Long Island area? If upstate was such an albatross, downstate should love getting rid of us.
But then downstate would have to house their own prisoners instead of sending them upstate (often with families following, many of whom are on various forms of welfare that the county they live in has to pay for), they wouldn't be able to raise the prices of electricity upstate where there is lots of cheap hydro to subsidize rates in NYC, they couldn't hold up the entire state budget to continue WWII era rent control (so fat-cat connected people like Charlie Rangel could have 4 rent controlled apartments), etc. How much of that $4 billion goes to NYC paying for its externalized costs?
Governor Cuomo, Senator Schumer, etc said that people that don't think like them should leave their state and downstate could care less about the affects of their actions on upstate anyway, so let us leave by letting us form our own state. It's a win-win for everyone if upstate/western NY are so bad for poor NYC.

Rated 4 out of 5?by kitygrl1 Awesome place! HATE the cable company!!!
Hi. I have lived here for at least 6 years and loved it. My unit is gorgeous, the grounds are always kept, the office knows me and is always helpful, maintenance is done promptly, 24 hr security. What more could you ask? Well, it's 2014, and reliable internet would be nice. They have an exclusive contract with Broadstar Cable (Look them up on Better Business Bureau and you'll see the problem). This company has to be the worst! The entire community hasn't had internet in days, and before that it was "dial-up" slow. Also numerous problems being billed for cable services I do not have. I'd love to switch companies, but here's the kicker... we cant! They can't get rid of that god-awful cable company... so we are forced to just deal with it! If you need internet for work, DO NOT LIVE HERE!!! My boyfriend has to go to Starbucks every day as he works from home. I loved my apartment so much, but at this point i feel like moving. :(

Rated 5 out of 5?by meems0408 I love it here
Whenever I call with a maintenance request, it is literally fixed within the day. I mentioned that my A/C didn't feel very cool, and by the time I got home, a brand new unit had been installed. I've been here over 5 years and don't remember there ever being a problem with crime here. It is very important to me that I live somewhere that does not tolerate thugs loitering about. Most of my neighbors are professionals or families and I don't have to worry about noise disturbances except for my neighbors dog. I like that fact that it is quite new and has nice appliances, granite countertops, and impact resistant glass in event of hurricanes. I have known the leasing agent the entire time I've been here, and she is always helpful. The only thing I dislike is the cable and internet company the association uses. It's probably the worst ever.

The property mgmt. here is very unprofessional, unethical, deceptive, and hostile. They don't respect your privacy and will enter your apt. without your permission which is illegal. The apt. was filthy and appliances broken when I moved in. They will not provide you w/a clicker for the back gate and they have bolted shut the pedestrian gates. They make no effort to provide service and you will feel like you are dealing with bipolar dictators instead of a company that is suppose to be providing you with service. Do not under any circumstances move here.

The politics and costs of health care reform, fairly or not, make trouble for Dayton.
Fairly or unfairly, trouble for Dayton
If Gov. Mark Dayton's actions in the MNsure situation were so motivated by political advantage ("MNsure boss' exit driven by politics," Lee Schafer column, Dec. 19) why did he attempt to defuse criticism of April Todd-Malmlov's vacation to Costa Rica at a critically important time for the success of MNsure? He cited existing vacation plans and possible financial commitments (tepid excuses, it seems to me, for Malmlov's absence when she was truly needed at the office, but excuses nevertheless). Isn't the governor's support for an entity designed to serve the citizens of Minnesota logical and humane rather than political?
NANCY B. MILLER, Minneapolis
• • •
After reading the Dec. 19 story about MNsure contractors ("Website contractors draw 11th-hour flak"), I finally realize that Dayton has burned through his $46 million fund to successfully enroll just under 100,000 Minnesotans in insurance. That's $460 per enrollee. That does not include the cost of subsidies (state and/or federal), nor the actual ongoing monthly insurance premium costs. When did the state of Minnesota become a venture capital fund? What experience does it have with start-ups? How many more rounds of funding does MNsure need from citizens to keep going? At what benchmark do the citizens of Minnesota get a return on investment? Should the investors (all of us) be made aware of our options for an exit plan? There are too many questions that weren't asked up front and continue to be ignored going forward.
JOSEPH THOMAS, Eden Prairie
Two more reasons improvement stalled
I can't recall a better commentary on public education than Bill Holden's "What really drives need for special ed?" (Dec. 18). He reminds us of the remarkable statistical gain in racial minority achievement since federal intervention began to equalize opportunities in the 1960s and '70s. But that improvement plateaued in the late '80s, as he noted, with the urban crack and violence epidemics and a culture glorifying gang and gun violence.
I would add two more causes: A disastrous African-American attitudinal shift (now ended) that educational success was a "white thing," and — beginning with President Ronald Reagan — a disparagement of traditional federal aid to education, which was working, initiating instead a relative defunding and radical experimentation, called "reform," with little concern for efficacy.
Bravo, Mr. Holden, not only for your hard-earned wisdom and heroic commitment to teaching, but for your informed reporting of the hard facts of public school classrooms today, about which liberals too often cry racism while conservatives ideologically refuse to support proven solutions rather than cost-free fads.
JAMES P. LENFESTEY, Minneapolis
U regent process plays a role here
I did not know Dan Markingson, but I have known his mother for a tad over 39 years ("Will the U review or whitewash a research subject's death?" Dec. 19). Last year, Mother Jones magazine printed an article by a University of Minnesota professor calling for the two people who were treating Markingson to be fired. That is pretty strong coming from a fellow faculty member.
Methinks the problem is the fact that the state Constitution gives the U freedom to do what it wants. The University of Minnesota Board of Regents [trustees] are selected by the Legislature. In Illinois, where I grew up, this was an elective post under the 1870 Constitution. The 1969 revision made it an appointee of the governor subject to state Senate approval.

Lottery isn't always a boon to schools
The selling point for state lotteries was that they would steer money to education. The actual results are a bit more mixed.
This year, millions of dollars of Indiana state lottery proceeds were poured into a teachers' retirement fund, school technology, and public-school tuition support.
Last year, the Idaho state lottery contributed $9 million to build new roofs on schoolhouses, new bleachers in school stadiums, and to buy new computers and school buses. Two years ago in California the state lottery contributed a record $1.11 billion to public education.
All this sounds good. But the story behind lottery money for education is more complicated, and not as rosy.
"The proceeds from state lotteries are less than you might think," says Molly Burke, researcher at the Education Commission of the States in Denver. "Even if they're all earmarked toward education, it isn't a huge amount. It's never quite as much as states would like the schools and the taxpayers to think."
Since the 1970s and 1980s, state lotteries have been popular means of helping to fill state coffers. Today 39 states have lotteries and several more have voted to join the crowd. Many states sell the lottery concept to the public with the promise that a large portion of the proceeds will benefit public schools.
In fact, 22 states earmark portions of lottery earnings for public school spending. States such as New York, Michigan, Missouri, and Vermont plow 100 percent of their lottery gains back into public education.
Yet, while the public may believe that means a net gain for schools, that's not always the case.
Many times, says the Rev. Richard McGowan, a professor at the Carroll School of Management at Boston College, "you're really allowing the state to spend the money in other places rather than the schools. It's not a bonus for the schools but a substitution."
Sometimes what ends up happening is that schools achieve a small gain through the lottery.

In "Wonderful Welcome," a Tapestry of Faith program
Gather the children in a circle. Show them the Wonder Box poster and explain that it looks like the Wonder Box to remind us about our intangible gifts. Invite a child to tape or glue the piece of cardboard to the poster. You may say:
This little piece of cardboard isn't much, is it? But, when we all worked together we put ideas and materials together to make something none of us could have dreamed up alone: a community playground that all our dolls today seemed to like and, if we really built one like it, kids would, too.
We can see our model playground and we could play on a real one, if we built one together. But the intangible gift is the gift of community.
Tell the children you are happy and thankful you all could be together this morning. You may say:
Giving thanks for being together is giving thanks for all that we can be and do when are together, and how good it feels to be a community. Let us say our closing words of gratitude together.
Invite the children to hold hands. Show them where you have posted the closing words. Ask them to say each line with you, and say the lines slowly:
We are thankful.
We are thankful to be here.
We are thankful to be here, together.
We are thankful to be here, together, now.
Then ask one child to very gently squeeze the hand of the person to their left, and have that person continue to pass the squeeze until the squeeze has returned to the person who started it. Tell the person who started the squeeze to signal that it has returned to them by raising their arms, still holding hands with the people on either side. When this happens, instruct everyone to raise their clasped hands, together. If you like, suggest a word for them to say at this moment, like "Good-bye!" or "Shalom," or the name of this session's intangible gift — "Community!"
Extinguish the chalice. Distribute Taking It Home handouts. Thank and dismiss participants.

Much pundit ink has been spilled pondering why the OccupyWallStreet protest has grown so rapidly and resonated so widely. But the answer is really not difficult to apprehend. Our political system is fundamentally broken by corruption and oligarchical control. Many people know this. They have rationally concluded that voting fixes none of these systemic problems precisely because the problems are systemic. And going out into the street to protest and demand an end to this corruption is the only perceived means of redress.
